MOSCOW, January 14, Alexander Sergeev. Sports Director of Spartak Moscow Luka Cattani said that the club had already decided on unnecessary players for the team. For the previous five seasons, Cattani headed the scout department in the French Paris Saint-Germain, and before that he worked as a sports director in the Italian Palermo and Novara, and also a scout for London's Chelsea. He took a post in Spartak at the end of December. «We decided on those (players) who will leave Spartak. I can't say who it will be,» Cattani said at a press conference. «Antar Yahya's function will be to build vertical of the academy. I take responsibility for it too. According to Rebrov, it was also my idea. Yahya came to the French team, where there was nothing in the youth sector. For Fedun, the academy is very important. He asked me: «Do you know a person who could organize such work?». I remembered that Yahya had built an academy in the French club from scratch. I did not say: «Take Yahya.» I told him: «There is an option with the Russian club, offer your own option.» In the end, he made a good impression on shareholders,» Cattani added. «Spartak» is in ninth place in the standings of the Russian Premier League, with 23 points.
